Rev. Eugene Palmore preached the ordination sermon for the service of Ordination and Installation for Asayo Okumura Thomas in our sanctuary on Sunday evening, August 30.
A solemn moment.
The candidate for ordination kneels while people pray over her and lay hands on her, to indicate the Holy Spirit comes from the whole people of God.
Asayo prepared to receive the prayer of Ordination.
Rev. Asayo Okumura Thomas and her mentor, Rev. Eugene Palmore, who guided her through the long process of preparation for ordination.
Congratulations, Rev. Asayo Okumura Thomas!
